Hello there! Time for another amazing, copycat, KFC recipe! Everyone went bonkers over my Copycat KFC Coleslaw, and my Copycat KFC Biscuits, so I decided it was time to share another KFC riff. My daughter made up a big batch of Copycat KFC Potato Salad for our 4th of July gathering this year and it…
Hello, Lovelies! Happy 4th of July! I thought I’d stop by the blog and share a cake recipe with you. I whipped up the cake last night, frosted it this morning, and decorated it right before we ate it. It’s super simple to make, and it’s a show stopper. This would make a pretty cake…
I’ve seen different recipes for this favorite snack over the years and never got around to actually making some until a few days ago. Alabama firecrackers are our new favorite snack. They are so addictive! Alabama firecrackers are spicy, crunchy, and totally delicious. My husband likes to eat them with salad instead of croutons. I…
I have recently discovered that oven roasting potatoes yields the best potato salad. I’ve been playing with potato salad recipes and realized that if you cover them while roasting, it’s even better because your potatoes don’t dry out and the salad is even more wonderful the next day. Oven roasting your potatoes adds amazing depth…
Have you ever made corn dogs? They’re usually greasy and kind of a hassle to prepare. I decided to give them a whirl in the air fryer and they were not only delicious, they’re super easy to make, and a batch of eight mini corn dogs only calls for 1 Tablespoon of oil! I made…
This is one of those salads I could make all summer long and never get tired of it. It’s slightly sweet corn crunch blends well with the fresh flavors of cilantro and veggies, and I added smoked paprika for a little depth. Some may want to top their salad with fried bacon crumbles and crumbled…
We’re experiencing LOTS of snowy weather here in Minnesota… today is day 2 of no school. I always enjoy snow days. I cook up a storm, light candles, sit in front of the fireplace and read (and sometimes I write.) Basically I just try to regroup and do what I want to do whether that…
Are you ready for an all new, totally amazing appetizer that’s sweet, smoky, spicy, and ridiculously easy to prepare? These little cocktail meatballs are a bit like the grape jelly cocktail meatballs that your grandma makes (well, I make them too, to be completely honest.) But these are pumped up about 100 notches. I add…
This creamy, dreamy macaroni salad is a combination of the classic, simple macaroni salad and fresh cucumber salad! This is one of those salads you can almost always find at our family gatherings in the summertime. You’re going to love the simple, minimal ingredients and how well it goes with all of your favorite picnic…
I made a huge batch of this delicious “copycat” KFC coleslaw for my granddaughter’s birthday party! It makes a ton, so if you don’t need a vat of coleslaw, you can easily cut the recipe in half. I’ve tried using a food processor to make this before and it didn’t achieve the very specific consistency…
